Christmas in the wizarding world is a pretty big deal, with snow somehow always guaranteed at Hogwarts – along with grandiose feasts in the Great Hall that are far more sumptuous than anything we could ever rustle up.

But muggle Kathryn Burnett has now managed to recreate the magic in the non-wizarding world, by decorating her Christmas tree with an array of amazing Harry Potter decorations.

And in all honesty, she’s making a very good case in why she should receive her letter from Hogwarts.

Kathryn, from Seaham, County Durham, is a MASSIVE Potterhead – having visited the Warner Bros Studio Tour no less than 11 times.

But her Harry-themed tree was a real labour of love, and took no less than eight hours to complete.

She said: ‘A lot of the decorations aren’t tree decorations, but I’ve managed to attach them. It started off where I was doodling a little idea then I got really excited about it and gave it a go. The more I collected the more excited I got about completing it.’

Now, it’s received over 25,800 shares after it was posted on Facebook by a friend – and even caught the eye of J.K. Rowling on Twitter.

‘I just put everything on I loved and didn’t expect this response’, Kathryn said.

I didn’t expect this many people to share, like, comment or message me about it as it’s not a very traditional tree.

Perhaps not, but it’s still the best effort we’ve seen all year.

There’s Ron Weasley’s Ford Anglia – which looks like it has just crashed into the Whomping Willow yet again.

Along with the Marauder’s Map, which will come in mightily handy when you’re trying to smuggle in presents without your family noticing.

There’s Hedwig too – because every Christmas tree needs an owl.

Hedwig!

Professor Umbridge also features…

And we’re loving this Howler – which also acts as a timely reminder that Santa is watching us all.

Howler!

There’s also this Slytherin badge too, in a necessary nod to the Dark Lord on the tree.

And who needs a Christmas fairy topping the tree when you’ve got a sorting hat?
